Sample Pet Contract

This contract is in effect to protect the Alaskan Klee Kai Dog/Puppy above all else. The AKK and its health and welfare are above both the seller and the buyer in importance. This contract serves to insure that end purpose.

 

SALE Above all else, the Buyer(s) promise to love and be proud of their Alaskan Klee Kai, and to care for and protect it. Buyer(s) understand that a dog is not a Business or status symbol, and that this breed was developed for the sole purpose of being a loved companion. Therefore, before I transfer ownership of any Alaskan Klee Kai, I will be reasonably confident that the prospective owner(s) will be responsible and loving owner(s).

It is hereby understood and agreed that the above named parties have entered into an Ownership Purchase Contract, Agreement and Bill of Sale for the above identified Alaskan Klee Kai. Buyer(s) understand that within a single litter, the Alaskan Klee Kai may produce all three sizes, and all variances in coats and quality, therefore the Breeder/Seller CANNOT guarantee the ADULT SIZE, QUALITY, or APPEARANCE of this Alaskan Klee Kai.

Sometimes between puppyhood and adulthood, changes in the dog might occur that affect the potential breeding/show quality of your young adult. The best puppies could grow up to have disqualifications, imperfections, or be medically, structurally or temperamentally defective. This is something that cannot be helped and is not the fault of the breeder or the owner.

PURCHASE PRICES vary depending upon the individual puppy/dog, and upon other arrangements made between Breeder/Seller and Buyer(s), and is agreed upon by both Buyer(s) and Breeder/Seller.

CARE The Buyer(s) agree that this Alaskan Klee Kai and all other animals residing with the buyer(s) will be treated in a humane manner. All immunizations will be kept current under the guidance of a qualified veterinarian, the animal will be licensed where required by law, and proper training will be given to prevent the development of personality traits which are normally considered undesirable. Buyer agrees to have a microchip placed by a qualified veterinarian at the earliest possible date, per veterinarian recommendation and to register tracking information in the event the animal becomes displaced. Buyer(s) further agree that this Alaskan Klee Kai will be kept under control and will not be allowed to run loose.

RETURNS The buyer(s) agree that if, at any time, they are no longer able, or desire to care for, keep or give love and attention this AKK deserves, the breeder/seller of this contract must be notified. The breeder/seller may have the option to have the dog returned at the buyer's expense. If it is determined the dog is not suitable for re-sale for any reason, the Breeder/Seller or buyer may choose to retain said dog in their kennel for the life of the animal, or euthanize the animal if it is decided that euthanizing the dog would be the most humane thing to do.

If for some reason buyer can no longer care for or keep above dog, seller must be contacted. As a breeder and caretaker, I must be responsible for all of the dogs I breed for the life of the animal.

The buyer(s) agree to AT ALL TIMES notify the Breeder/Seller of any changes to Name, address, telephone number and/or e-mail address for the life of the Puppy/dog.

REGISTRATION It is further agreed that the registered name of this Alaskan Klee Kai will have the Prefix "HOT", and that this name will be permanently registered with UKC. The buyer will have the right of registering the official name with UKC, retaining the prefix "HOT" and to choose the call name of the animal.

BREEDING The buyer(s) agree that this AKK is being purchased as a pet and breeding will not be done. Special Arrangements Agreed Upon For This Transaction This Alaskan Klee Kai is being sold as a companion. There are no physical or health defects that are known at this time. If the buyer wishes to keep this dog in tact long enough to show him, that would be acceptable. If not, then the puppy will need to be neutered at or near the age of 6 months or when the buyers vet suggests.

The agreed upon purchase price at date of delivery is $2000.00. with transportation cost of 275.00.  In addition to that there will be a 25.00 fee for a one year membership in the National Breed Club once payment has been made, if it is to be returned for any reason, to include buyers remorse, before the puppy has been transported, the buyer understands that it could take up to 30 days for payment to be received back as certified cashiers check, no matter how the payment was originally made.

Co-ownership on the registration papers will be maintained with the breeder until the dog is altered.

The breeder requires monthly reports of health and welfare until the puppy is at least 1 year old, and then although the preference is to always have an idea of what is going on, a yearly report is the minimal allowed.

TERMINOLOGY "Show Quality", "Breeding Quality" and "Companion Quality" are terms that merely mean the Alaskan Klee Kai does or does not meet the requirements for the Breeding Program, and for showing in any and all AKK approved shows. These terms do NOT guarantee the dog will mate, produce offspring, or that the dog will perform well in the show ring.

MEDICAL RECORDS Buyer(s) understand that the AKK is a new breed of dog, and that genetic faults may appear in the breed just as genetic faults appear in long established breeds. The Buyer(s) agree to assist in tracking of possible genetic faults by advising the Breeder in writing, of all surgeries, illness, or death of their AKK. The purpose is for guidance in an attempt to diminish any genetic faults, rather than allowing them to become more established in the breed.

CERTIFICATE OF HEALTH A certificate of health will be provided by the breeder/seller's veterinarian prior to placement of the puppy/dog. Seller guarantees that the dog is in good health, free from any known defects: genetic, structural, communicable, or temperament in nature.

Even though a Health Certificate has been issued, it is necessary for you to provide proof of a qualified Veterinarian examination within a three (3) business day period to insure your health Guarantee.

This puppy is guaranteed to be free of any known defects. If it is determined by the veterinarian visit upon arrival with the buyer, that there are any genetic health defects, as previously mentioned, the puppy will be exchanged at the earliest possible convenience if the puppy is returned in 3 business days to the breeder in the same condition that it was received (in tact).

CHANGES Any changes that could be done to this agreement must be completed in writing and agreed upon by all parties.

NON-COMPLIANCE If the Buyer(s) default, have intentionally falsified information, or express non- compliance of ANY PORTION of this contract results in forfeiture of this AKK as well as the monies paid and received.

Should there be a disagreement of any kind to uphold this contract, both Buyer(s) and Seller(s) agree to have an independent party assist in the determination of rightful results, which must be a member in good standing of UAKKA, prior to beginning any litigation. Any litigation resulting from the upholding of this contract will be filed and litigated in Bexar County Texas. The Buyer(s) agree that the Seller's maximum liability is limited to the cash portion of the sales price, not to include transportation or any other cost incurred.
